Quoting TraderinSD
Here is my question: I understand what Sam is saying about the formation of the imbalance area, the strong break out, looking at the way price has moved away from the imbalance area. This will tell you where the imbalance is. I also understand waiting for a move back to the imbalance area, then taking the trade once the retest of the imbalance is reached. What I am still having trouble with is determining which imbalance area is correct. There can many that fit this criterion.
TraderinSD, If i understand your question correctly i have wrote down the following to try and answer, but im sure Rocky would be able to supply more or tell me if im correct or not!



ODDS ENHANCERS.


1. How did the price leave the level?
(The faster the better. 1st candle 2x zone).

2. How much time did price spend at the level?
(The shorter amount of time the better. i.e. only 3 or 4 candles).

3. Zones on top of zones.
(Rocky’s HPT trades).

4. How far did price decline before returning back to supply level?
(At least twice the level 2/1 risk reward).

5. How did the price return to the level?
(The sharper the better).

6. Make sure there is room for your trade.
(i.e. don’t go long if there is a higher timeframe supply zone just above your trade and vice versa).

7. Entry should be outside the Bollinger Bands.
(This is one of Rocky's Enhancers, not Sam's)


Now i have only picked these enhancers up by watching many of Sam's webinars, there almost certainly is more.
So if anyone reading these knows of any more please feel free to add to the list.

Kev.

Hi Rocky, (and all)
Just wanted to say thanks for all of your time and knowledge on this thread. I have been reading for a couple of weeks ( I have an older brain and it takes awhile ) and took my first trade last night. Attachment is the before, anyone interested can pull up the after to see how it played out. Again Rocky Thanks

what!

Here is what I always do... add or subtract 20 pips from the candle you are looking at, ie in this example the low was 1.5526 + 20 = 1.5546 then put your order there or an alarm, whatever you like. For shorts the opposite high -20 pips. Tells you pretty accurate where the market might react at.

Hope this helps.

p.s would have been a hell of a good trade in hindsight.

Yes they do. I usually find my SD levels on the 1 hour chart and then drop down to 15 min to fine tune any entry point.

Plz see the attached.

Hey guys i noted a supply zone on the eur/usd. But it just rocketed up taking out my stop loss. I saw it below a big round number of 1.37....
actually it did go down for some profit, but not my target profit.

Anyone care to comment?

go to YouTube and search Sam Seiden. He will teach you everything you need to know about Supply and Demand Zones. He was my mentor, the person I learned from.


[color=black][font=Verdana]Meaning you will have to take his course in order to learn exactly how he determines his supply and demand zones. Would this be a correct statement? As I have many of his videos ( great stuff by the way !! ) and am a support / resistance type trader, finding the specifics on how he determine one area and not the other still leave me guessing. The concept is very...


YES he never explains in detail how he picks them, its like every traind video, they give you but so much and the rest you have to pay for. Its all some secret.
